The guys from EA have given us an early view of the Crysis 2 trailer. Take a look at the game that will probably make you upgrade your PC hardware. Again.

OK, maybe it’s cheating a little because the graphics are rendered in the cloud and then streamed to the device via a service called OTOY, but still: The iPad runs Crysis. Kinda. More »
Crysis is the current standard bearer for PC game graphics. If your computer can run Crysis well, it’s a pretty impressive setup. So it’s pretty nuts to see Crysis running smoothly on a Samsung Omnia mobile phone. More »
Okay, for $US699, you might not be able to buy the best laptop in the world. But for $US500, you can build a PC that plays Crysis at a solid 40 frames per second.
ATI and Nvidia have had plenty of time to fine-tune their graphics monsters for Windows 7, so with the latest drivers, Extremetech answers that burning question: Is Windows 7 or Vista faster for games?
Caustic Graphics, a startup from ex-Apple engineers, thinks that their approach to 3D graphics—ray-tracing—will result in way more realistic eye candy than you see today, with chips that are 200x faster than today’s by 2010.
We’ve all heard about Windows 7′s speed gains over Vista, but how does it run Crysis?
According to Cnet test labs, the Falcon Northwest Mach V is the fastest PC on the planet, beating the Alienware Area-51 ALX. How fast you ask? How about being the first PC ever to hit 60 frames per second running Crysis on the highest graphics preset? Yes. That fast.

Unfortunately, it’s still fairly early in the getting-going phase, so they don’t have a lot of software running for it, much less anything that’ll drill your eyeballs like Crysis at 6000FPS—though I think I convinced them that a Crysis test is absolutely critical. galleryPost('craycx1', 3, '');
